BIOL 1001 Chapter : Topic List For Test 2 With Chapter Questions
Document Summary
Topic list for exam 2 partial list. Chapter 5: functions, properties and components of the plasma membrane, fluidity of membranes, plasma membrane fig. 5. 1: membrane proteins (receptor, recognition, carrier, and channel, movement of molecules (concentration gradient, passive transport, diffusion, facilitated diffusion, how molecules pass the pm, osmosis, water balance in cells (fig. 5. 8: active transport, endocytosis, exocytosis, cell connections and communication. The membrane at the boundary of every cell that acts as a selective barrier, thereby regulating the cell"s chemical environment. Fluid-mosaic model each membrane consists of a mosaic of proteins that constantly shift and flow within a fluid formed by a double layer of phospholipids: explain the properties of the main component of the plasma membrane. _phospholipids_ are molecules which can form membranes naturally (fig 5. 3) Hydrogen bonds form between water and the phospholipid heads, tails are located on the inside. Explain the difference between simple diffusion and facilitated diffusion.
